In the second week of our series, No More Excuses, we talk about the parable of the Great Banquet that Jesus told. It is recorded in Luke 14 if you want to go check it out. In this message we talk about how there is no negoti

We all know that the Bible talks about giving 10%. At least, if you’ve been in church for very long at all, you’ve undoubtedly heard about the “tithe” and that God wants the 1st 10% of the income he se

Thanks for stopping by! Starting on December 1st, we will be doing a series called “It’s A Wonderful Life?” Each week we will spend some time watching some scenes from the classic movie and talking about thi

When churches talk about tithing, people usually glue their wallets shut. However as we talk about tithing this week at SixEight Church we talk about how it’s a heart issue more than it is a money issue. And the reason

This week we started a new series entitled “Dollars & Sense.” The goal of this series is to get us all handling God’s money and a God-honoring way. To get us started, we had pastor Phil Yntema join us to

This week we hear from our Student Life Pastor, Kenan Stolz. Kenan shared with us from the book of James and challenged us with the question: “What do you serve?” As we are reminded in James, faith without works i

We all long for and desire mountaintop experiences. We want so deeply to be able to stand on the mountain with Abraham. We want to get our name written down among those in the Bible who have had great faith. But, so often, we

Your mission for this week is to come up with your Sun Stand Still Prayer and share it with us. It really is that simple. Come up with your Sun Stand Still prayer and then share it with us by clicking here. And if you’r

Joshua had gotten himself into a heap of trouble. Without seeking the Lord, they made an alliance with Gibeon. And that turned out bad for Israel. Have you ever gotten yourself into a situation, but you needed God’s hel

This past weekend we started a new series called Sun Stand Still. And actually, it was more than just a new series, it’s a whole new framework for us as a church. It’s a new way for us to start praying for ourselv

There are a great deal of pains in this life. There are burdens that seem impossible to bear. There are situations that seem like you’ll never get through. There are mountains that seem to high, valleys too low, dessert

This Sunday was a little different. Instead of having a typical Sunday with worship and a sermon, we stopped for a moment to hear from each ministry and what they’ve got coming up in the fall. Then we spent some time pr

What could possibly be the reason that we have lost our enthusiasm for sharing with other about the amazing grace we have been given? When you think about it, what we have is so awesome and so amazing that there really should

Why do we need to pray for the people we are trying to reach? The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of Go

Throughout the Bible we hear a lot about light, especially in the New Testament. When Jesus comes, He is often described as the Light, the Light of the world. As His followers the light gets passed on to us and now we are the

This is the final sermon in our series, “Wake Up!” and in it we talk about the greatest of endings. “Hope is a good thing. Maybe the best thing.” And this morning we talk about just that, Hope. We have

For God so loved… Love has been altered in society. It now refers either to romantic love or is used as a common place term for anything. What we are finding is there is a lot of love missing. Or, as many of us have fou

As we continue on in our “Wake Up!” series, we get to a very important topic…ONIONS! Okay, it might not be all that important, but what they represent in us is very important. As we talk today about worship,

This is a topic that most people don’t want to talk about, and yet the Bible talks about money more than it talks about Hell. Because of that, we should really pay attention to what the bible says about money. Today we

As we continue in our series of Wake Up!, we are covering a topic that is central to how God wants us, as His disciples, to live. That is the area of serving one another. Mark 10 says that Jesus came to serve, not to be serve

This week, as we continue on in the “Wake Up!” series, we talk about the power that exists in this body we are a part of. We’re not talking about our individual, physical bodies. Instead, the body of Christ

This is the third week in our series, “Wake Up!” We are setting the stage for how we should approach some of the most crucial aspects of our lives. So far we have covered waking up from pride to humility and how y

In the second week of our introduction to the series Wake Up, we talk about waking up from Apathy to Action. And since it’s Father’s day we also talked a lot about Basketball and Football. 🙂 From chapter 5 of E

This is a talk that was given during a series called “Wake Up!” As we went through the series, one of the key points we talked about was walking humbly. To get a good idea of why that’s important to us at Si

We all have ideas that come into our head when we hear the word “evangelism.” But, what does real evangelism look like? Is it a Billy Graham Crusade or going door to door and striking up a conversation with whoeve

In today’s message, we talk about a verse that summarizes the Old Testament. It’s also a verse that describes what we’re about as a church. Listen in as we start talking about this all important topic for ou

This morning, as David was confirmed and commissioned to be the permanent Lead Pastor of Whipple Creek, he wanted to share with you all the reasons why it’s only because of God that he has the opportunity to serve the

There are many great stories of great mothers in the pages of the Bible. But instead of focusing on any of them, we focus today on a mother and grandmother you may not know about at all. In the first chapter of 2 Timothy, we

As we begin this new series, we started with an illustration. When we were sinners, we lived in the world and our mind thought like the world thinks. But, as we have received Christ, we have been born into a new world with a

This coming Sunday we will be beginning a new sermon series called “All In The Mindset.” We’ll be covering some of the things that we can do to “set our minds on things above, not earthly things. There

Pastor Rick Weber shared with us this past Sunday from Psalm 107. He shared with us a great message about those who are to give thanks to the Lord. In life there are many trials, and we are urged to consider it pure joy when

Today we wrapped up our series, Ironic with a talk about what it means to be the body. No other King would have left his Kingdom in the hands of commoners. No other king would build a kingdom without walls. No other Kingdom

This week in our Ironic series, we talk about proof for the resurrection, the ascension and the Holy Spirit. No other King ascended into Heaven or could even imagine a way they could fill their followers with their presence.

An Ironic Easter Jesus said to his disciples,” I do not give as the world gives.” In that one sentence we find the entire message of the Gospel of Jesus. Maybe not in the mere words that are there, but in the mean

Dense Disciples This week, we try to catch as much of Jesus’ life in this one sermon as we possibly can. Jesus came to seek and save that which was lost. Jesus came for all mankind. It’s hard to sum up Jesus&#8217

Irony: The use of words to convey a meaning that is the opposite of its literal meaning: – an outcome of events contrary to what was, or might have been, expected. Being hipster and ironic is all the rage right now. All

Sermon Recap: In this week’s sermon we talked about the importance of prayer. Specifically the role prayer plays in reaching the 8 to 15 people God has place in our lives. If you didn’t listen to last weeks sermon

Today we are finishing up the series, One. In it, we’ve covered the three Ones that we want to be about as a church. The one thing – Jesus, Being One Body and our One mission. As we talk today, we cover the topic

What do we do? If there is division there is no communion. Taking the elements of communion, the cup and the bread, are not what makes it communion. The unity that Jesus prayed for us, brought together under the sacrificial l

How we take communion is just as important as taking communion. We can never do anything to make ourselves worthy of Christ’s death for us on the Cross. Communion celebrates what Christ did for us. The word unworthy does no

Sermon Recap: In today’s sermon we talked about the many things that can distract us from the one thing. It’s so easy to get distracted with all the things going on around us, to get caught up living in the periph
